The mechanical craze in Marvel

She had never forgotten someone, but Victor had indeed been very good to her.

After so much time, she has begun to waver.

But in the end, she shook her head and said:

"Boss, perhaps you should consider suspending investments in the space sector. This research project has become our biggest money-losing project, and the board of directors has strong opinions against it."

Viktor von Doom frowned.

He did lose a lot of money in the space sector, but it was very important to his strategy for a technology empire.

If he succeeds, he will gain immense fame and fortune.

"We'll see. Our spaceship is already built, and I don't want to sell it before it even takes off. That would be a real loss, and I never do anything that loses money."

Viktor von Doom glanced at Susan, somewhat hesitant, having heard that his old classmate seemed to be seeking investment.

The thought flashed through his mind, and he put the idea aside.

He doesn't like that guy.

Chapter 187 The Vicious Tony Stark

a few days later.

Nolan attended a talent exchange conference; those who could attend were all renowned scientists.

Nolan's main purpose in attending this event was to have a conversation with Tony Stark.

Locke Technology is thriving, and although it may not yet catch Tony Stark's eye, Nolan believes that, based on his understanding of Tony Stark in another world, it's not impossible for him to establish a connection with Tony Stark.

At the exchange meeting, Tony Stark was undoubtedly the brightest star.

As the most sought-after genius, even his name alone is worthy of countless praises.

Nolan sat in the audience, quietly listening to Tony Stark's ramblings.

In his view, although Tony Stark said a lot, it all boils down to one point.

Everyone here is trash.

This is so typical of Tony Stark, Nolan thought to himself.

As Tony Stark stepped down, Nolan walked straight toward him.

"Hello."

Tony Stark frowned, his eyes gleaming with obvious displeasure at having his path blocked.

He'd seen plenty of people like that, so he knew how to get rid of them.

"No matter who you are, I don't want to talk to trash I don't recognize."

Tony Stark speaks with his nostrils flared up, giving him a rather arrogant air.

Just when Tony Stark thought Nolan was definitely going to leave, Nolan spoke up:

"It seems that the famous Tony Stark's IQ is clearly not up to the level of a genius. Can you tell me? Is your being called a genius entirely due to your father's influence?"

In short, he incurred Tony Stark's wrath.

Do you know who you're talking to?!

Tony Stark glared angrily at Nolan.

"Of course I know. I'm talking to trash who dismisses someone without even knowing their name."

Nolan's words nearly made Tony Stark jump up in anger.

"Fine, in that case, you'd better prove you're not an idiot, or I guarantee you'll regret everything you've said!"

Nolan's lips curled into a smile.

Do you know the three key milestones in plasma technology?

"Three major nodes?"

Tony Stark paused for a moment.

He had little knowledge of plasma technology, but he had to admit that it was an important component of future technology.

"The three major milestones of plasma technology are..."

Nolan spoke eloquently, giving a brief overview of plasma technology.

He was quite certain that no one on Earth could keep up with him when it came to plasma technology!

A few minutes later, Tony Stark frowned.

"What's your name? I think you're qualified to say your name to me now."

Nolan inwardly grimaced, but his expression remained calm.

"Nolan Locke, founder of Locke Technology, a relatively new technology company, so you may not have heard of it, but believe me, in three years, you will hear this name anywhere in the world."

Tony Stark scoffed at Nolan's words.

"Who do you think you are, Tony Stark?"

As he spoke, he said:

"You have three minutes now. Don't tell me you're blocking my way just to talk nonsense."

Even without becoming a superhero, Tony Stark remains just as detestable as ever, even with a different face...

Nolan thought to himself.

"Of course, I've heard that Stark Industries is preparing to conduct a five-day outer space experiment. Coincidentally, I have some research on gamma particles that I'd like to conduct in space, so I'm hoping to hitch a ride."

Tony Stark raised an eyebrow, a mocking look on his face, and was already preparing to leave.

"Your idea is very good, so what benefits will I get?"

Nolan considered for a moment, then said:

"How about a shareholding opportunity? This experiment is a study on the controllability of gamma particles. If it is successful, it will help humanity take a big step forward in the field of gamma. Of course, the benefits involved are also very considerable."

Just then, a person walked over.

“Mr. Stark, the controllability of gamma particles has already been proven in numerous scientific studies. At this stage, humanity is simply not qualified to explore this field because we do not have enough samples to conduct such an experiment. I am almost certain that this experiment will fail.”

In contrast, a solar storm is expected to occur in two months, and I have been studying the human genetic blueprint, which now only requires confirmation through outer space experiments.

If Stark Industries could sponsor this research, it would be highly likely to be perfected, which would be extremely important for humanity, potentially unlocking the mysteries of the human genome!

Nolan looked at the person who was speaking and immediately frowned.

Susan Stone wasn't very famous, but the man in front of her was a frequent face in newspapers; his name was Reed Richards.

They're here to steal it!

Nolan looked displeased.

Even if such behavior can be considered justifiable, Reed Richards is indeed an unpleasant guy.

Not only him, but Tony Stark also showed a hint of dissatisfaction on his face.

He knew Reed Richards, but he wasn't interested in Reed Richards' research. Now he had another reason to be annoyed by Reed Richards' tone!

Am I talking to you?

Tony Stark opened his mouth and asked.

Reed Richards' face stiffened; he clearly hadn't expected Tony Stark to say something like that.

A flicker of displeasure crossed Reed Richards's face as he suppressed his anger.

As a genius, he naturally had his own pride.

At other times, he would have simply turned and left.

But not now; he hasn't forgotten that he's here to attract investment.

“Mr. Stark, perhaps you should consider my suggestion. If you saw my experimental data, you would understand how important this research is to humanity.”

Reed Richards spoke patiently, never once glancing at Nolan, as if he didn't care about Nolan at all.

Nolan gave a soft hum.

"Human gene research? In my opinion, that's far less reliable than gamma particles."

He hadn't forgotten that although the Fantastic Four were born from that space experiment, his experiment had failed.

If it weren't for this, Victor von Dum wouldn't have gone bankrupt and been ousted from the board.

"Who are you!"

Reed Richards glanced at Nolan, his face calm and devoid of any emotion.

Clearly, his previous disregard for Nolan was not intentional.

But...

He really didn't take Nolan seriously.

"Nolan Locke," Nolan began.

“I don’t know him,” Reed Richards replied.

"So, Mr. Stark, have you made up your mind?"

Tony Stark glanced at Reed Richards, and for some reason, he always felt that this man's eyes seemed to never take anyone seriously.

Tony Stark, who also disregards others, knows very well that they are the same kind of people.

But that doesn't mean he likes this guy.

“I’ve thought it over. Stark Industries will be supporting the Gamma Particle Project. Hmm… what’s your name again? Never mind, it doesn’t matter. I hope you won’t waste this opportunity.”

Nolan's lips twitched. That bastard.

But at least he has achieved his goal.

Nolan glanced at Reed Richards without making a sound, and then sincerely thanked him.
